The HRP prioritizes the most urgent humanitarian needs in Libya and sets out a framework for all humanitarian partners, working closely with Libyan authorities, to reach 940,000 vulnerable people. The comprehensive response plan addresses the needs of the internally displaced, returnees, vulnerable non-displaced Libyans, migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers in urgent need of health care, protection, food, drinking water, sanitation services, shelter, education and other basic services.

Libya continues to experience shortages in fuel, electricity and medical supplies and the provision of health care and public services continue to decline, thus exacerbating the humanitarian situation over the past year.
